New #430, and what a way to start 2012 off! 1/5/2012

Just got a heart-stopper New #430. I AM NOT KIDDING YOU!

900: CHML Hamilton, ON; ID "AM 900 CHML" and old time radio program MATCHING webstream! New #430, 50kw, 2049 miles, NEW PROVINCE, first new 2000+ log in over a year.

DXers, try to see what you can get to the NW now! It was mixing with CKBI, and 740 may have had activity too.

Niiiiiiiice catch. And remember there's not only other Canadians at night, but nowadays US stations can run 24 hours on 900 on flea power. No easy feat there.

ANOTHER LOG!

870: WWL New Orleans, LA; fair signal with ads (Bedding Plus, HD Radio etc) and back into talk show with mentions of "WWL.com". NEW #431, 2096 mi, 2nd Louisiana logged, 50kw! Never heard W of the Cascades!!

Also heard tonight
670 KMZQ Las Vegas, NV on DAY power...
1210 UNID SSer (salsa music), weak
1210 UNID Asian station (maybe Chinese?) strong-might have been 370 watter KQEQ in Fowler CA (which I have personally caught before) but I'm not sure
1260 CFRN Edmonton + 580 CKUA-big signals on both
1010 unid music way under CBR. Might have been KCHJ Delano CA with a Spanish Oldies format.

I don't get a big mess on 900 like some of these posters. I only get CKBI usually at night, sometimes w/ CKMO, and KKRT Wenatchee, WA sunset before they power down. CHML was no easy feat.

Nice job! CHML is kind'a in my backyard. I'm roughly 120 - 140 miles southeast of their sticks.
WWL used to come in like gang busters years ago, not so much anymore.
